Chapter 1513: The Hospital Is Your Backing!
Li Yue looked at Chen Cang's confident smile and awkwardly smiled as well.
"Thank you!"
Chen Cang shook his head, "It's no trouble."
Yu Yonggang was expressionless and in a foul mood; being sued is a common issue for the emergency department.
However, it's understandable when our mistakes lead to lawsuits.
But when we've done our utmost and it still seems our fault, even turning it into a basis for extortion, it's truly disheartening!
Moreover, the current environment has also fostered a certain arrogance in this improper behavior.
Making them think the hospital doesn't want to escalate matters, even willing to keep things quiet.
At noon, Wu Tongpu called.
"Yonggang, about this matter..." Wu Tongpu decided to probe first.
Before he could finish, Yu Yonggang said directly, "Director Wu, this time I don't plan to talk to them!"
"Since it has already reached the court, let's just face it on the court directly."
Wu Tongpu heard this and couldn't help but smile, "Alright, don't get too worked up. The reason I'm calling you is."
"I've invited Mr. Jin, the hospital's legal advisor, to assist you in handling this matter."
Saying this, Wu Tongpu said decisively, "Though we prefer not to initiate trouble, it doesn't mean we're afraid when something occurs!"
"This time they directly froze the medical records, taking us to court, even finding the appraisal party in advance, it's somewhat bullying!"
"All costs for this lawsuit will be covered by the hospital, assure Li Yue he won't suffer any losses!"
After hanging up the phone, Yu Yonggang suddenly felt a surge of warmth inside.
Even Li Yue, who was listening to the call beside him, was extremely excited to hear the director's voice!
People are like this, they need affirmation and a sense of belonging.
The department and hospital not wronging themselves and standing by them, that's enough!
The court date arrived.
A lot of media also started paying attention to this matter.
Doctor-patient disputes are always the best resources for grabbing headlines.
Doctors and patients always seem to be on opposing sides in the media.
And now, when they appear in court, this opposition is magnified infinitely.
For the media, it's like a cat smelling fish.
When Yu Yonggang arrived at the court entrance with Li Yue, Old Ma, Chen Cang, and others, a crowd gathered around them.
"Hello, we are reporters from the XX Evening News. Director Yu, I'd like to ask what your view is on this lawsuit."
"Dr. Li Yue, do you have anything to say about being taken to court this time?"
"Professor Chen, this time you're in court, which side will you stand on? Justice or the hospital?"
The media's questions weren't sharp but were full of traps.
Originally, Yu Yonggang and the others didn't plan to provoke these people, but after hearing the questions, Yu Yonggang paused.
He turned to the media and said:
"Li Yue is a good doctor, a hero who has participated in disaster relief and rescue missions multiple times, an outstanding young doctor from the capital who has been commended in the Great Hall of the People!"
"As for this matter, I just want to say one thing: to those with ulterior motives, feel free to come at us! Let's see if we're afraid this time!"
"As the department director, I was involved in all of Li Yue's treatment plans. I believe it was an excellent and standard emergency treatment without issues, and this time the lack of active treatment from the family was instead a direct factor leading to the patient's death."
"What I want to say is, to anyone who thinks we're pushovers, remember, the hospital merely opts not to disrupt the normal rescue order, not out of fear or dread of your poor show!"
Yu Yonggang's voice was firm, and everyone around could clearly hear!
Even when people heard Old Yu's determined tone, they were stunned!
Because it was the first time they saw such a bold doctor!
In the past, who wasn't mild and reserved?
At this moment, Chen Cang also spoke into the microphone, "I represent professionalism, it's unrelated to justice!"
"In court, someone will pronounce justice for us, I'm merely doing my job."
"And I, happen to be the most professional in the field of digestive surgery."
When Chen Cang finished speaking and prepared to leave, he turned back and added:
"No one else compares!"
After saying that, Chen Cang left with everyone else!
This remark from Chen Cang directly left everyone stunned!
What an arrogant statement!
I happen to be the most professional in digestive surgery, no one else compares!
Probably in today's world, Chen Cang is the only one qualified to say such a thing!
General surgery might be vast, but who in digestive surgery can match Chen Cang's expertise?
As the president of the World Digestive Surgery Society and the leader of the Chinese Medical Association Digestive Surgery Society, Chen Cang in this field, whether in China or worldwide, represents authority.
Just as Chen Cang said.
I represent professionalism.
As for justice, someone else will preside over it.
This beginning instantly brought the trial to a climax even before it began.
Everyone was filled with anticipation, today's news was bound to be sensational!
In the hands of these professionals, news drafts were already taking shape, ready to be published on online platforms soon!
...
...
The trial is about to start!
This time, the deceased's family also came prepared and professional, inviting an expert appraisal agency to conduct a detailed and thorough examination of the deceased's medical process.
At the start of the trial, the Emergency Center Hospital's Emergency Department and Li Yue faced challenges!
The forensic appraisal center commissioned by the court began announcing the appraisal results of the case, considering that:
"Both the medical and patient sides had certain issues in this practice!"
"Regarding diagnosis and treatment, after vomiting blood for 2 hours, the patient was sent to the Emergency Center Emergency Department for treatment.
The medical side's admission diagnosis of 'gastrointestinal bleeding, hemorrhagic shock' was confirmed according to the patient's current history, past history, physical examination, auxiliary examination, and endoscopic examination and treatment conditions.
After being informed of the risks, symptomatic treatment such as monitoring, oxygen inhalation, and fasting was provided, and emergency endoscopic hemostasis treatment was given, adhering to the emergency treatment principles for gastrointestinal bleeding, without faults on the medical side."
"However! After the patient developed a suspected rebleeding situation, the doctor failed to communicate effectively and correctly with the family and did not conduct emergency surgical treatment, which constitutes a fault!"
This immediately left everyone speechless.
What is meant by correctly and effectively communicating?
This is simply an unsolvable mystery!
The hospital's defense lawyer immediately stood up and said, "The attending physician Li Yue had repeatedly cautioned the family about this case and suggested transferring to the ICU multiple times, but the family refused. On this point, we deny our liability."
Upon this statement, the deceased's lawyer son directly submitted a medical record!
